do you mean these
 |
Probably not - they look a bit similar, but those have squeezed ends. The stuff you used to be able to get in chemists were rock hard shattered, so the sticks were always a uniform thickness and the ends were cut. More like a stick of rock, but even harder.
There's a chance it could be these - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153 |  |

I like it rock hard 
You used to be able to get sticks that you had to bash with a hammer or rolling pin to break chunks off - lovely stuff. I haven't seen them around for years - it's all soft, sugary rubbish now. |
Liquorice Paddles. Break your teeth on those.
There is. a shop in York that still sells them and a garage on the A66 near Penrith. Always make a point of stopping at that garage if I'm travelling down south. |  |

If you like liquorice, give Lakrids by Bulow a try.
Danish liquorice covered in a flavoured white chocolate shell.
I tried it for the first time over Christmas. Lovely stuff! | | | |

Fizzy Cola Bottles, Drumsticks, Fruit Salads and those little chocolate footballs, all winners |
Cola bottles, choc footballs and drumsticks all good.
Remember milk bottles? They were peculiar but nice. Cadburys chocolate eclairs - toffee with a chocolate centre.
Sherbet lemons were good but you needed to get through them in a day before the all stuck together.
All washed down with a bottle of Corona Ice Cream Soda, cola, orange or cherryade. Sugar free, I’m sure……. |  | | |

There should be more ice cream soda and cherryade in the world.
Bottle of Tizer would do the job as well |  | | |

Tizer ‘the appetiser’! Yep, that was good too.
Pear drops: never quite sure whether I liked them, but would never turn one down! No idea why, but I liked aniseed balls. Great for cracking your teeth too. | | | |

I liked those too. For no reason whatsoever the rhubarb and custard ones were preferable. | | | |
